Narrative Enrichment
We are what happens when two people don’t say no for too long.
Initially we created Nedulous Productions as a banner for our projects together.
But it quickly become a real company and the name was frankly a bit weird.
We have two destinct brands:
YouTellYours.com & Ferdle.com
These brands sit under our new company name Ferdle LLC.
This structure gives a focus to our work, and help us know when yes is truly the right answer.

Mark TwedDLE
Chief of Making it Happen
Mark’s current Podcast & YouTube.
Mark makes every electronic part of this business work.
Unable to ignore “How?” questions, Mark continually amasses knowledge of how ‘stuff’ works. And by ‘stuff’ we include people, organizations, and teams with machines, computers, and the more tangible ‘stuff.’
Generally, Mark’s been employed to use his leadership, management, IT, digital marketing, social media, and video production knowledge. As a result, he has worked in many different business areas, including manufacturing, travel, IT support, and the defense branch of the UK government. Ultimately he’s found it difficult to find the perfect role for his skills and interests until now.
Mark’s love of storytelling has quietly simmered over the years, starting from a love of the independent movies he would watch at the GFT. He will still talk passionately about watching Spalding Grey’s “Swimming to Cambodia” a movie that is entirely a monologue story.
Mark struggled with public speaking until he worked on a story with Lynn. He had not talked publicly about anything without a script or notes until he told the story we’ve included on this page. As a result, Mark is in many ways the driving force promoting the relevance of good storytelling in all areas of our modern lives.
In many ways, FERDLE is the business he’s always been looking for as he gets to use all of his skills for a business that he is truly passionate about.

Current projects:
We are currently developing a podcast covering the experiences of a now-retired escort who kept an index card for every client she served. This will be available as a package in April 2023.
Mark has been editing and consulting for the Intimate Fame podcast.
Together, Mark and Lynn have developed the one-woman storytelling show, “Storyland”. Following a successful debut at the 2022 Edinburgh Festival, the show returned for the 2023 Edinburgh Festival followed by 10 dates of a UK tour. The next steps aren’t fully defined and will likely involve some performances in Los Angeles.
“Notes From The Valley” is Lynn’s weekly email newsletter/blog where she delivers a new note every week to paid and free subscribers. Now a year in, there is a book will all of the year’s notes collected together on paperback, hardback, ebook, and soon-to-be-completed audiobook.
